Chapter 18: Still Alive (II
Fortunately, he didn't have to make a decision next, because Wang Pan, the chief officer of the Fury Wind Battalion, came over in person and resolutely and politely took over the negotiation of this matter.
At this point, Zhou Huai'an was also relieved, and made some expressions of approval and gratitude to Xiao Qi, who ran again with a somewhat collapsed face, and sure enough, a little bit of city grace from time to time can come in handy at a critical time.
Next, the matter of continuing to interrogate and screen the spies was finally irrelevant to him, but in the next few days, he had to continue to screen and select all kinds of people among the nearby rebels who were waiting for the hungry; It is not limited to craftsmen, but also expands to several other soup kitchens.
For this result, Zhou Huai'an can only comfort himself with a less bad development instead of the worst change; And on the way back to the camp in the dark, the head Wang Pan couldn't help but speak.
"I can't see that you still have the ability to distinguish people and spies, monk."
"This is really a big misunderstanding."
Zhou Huaian could only pretend to be helpless and complain slightly.
"In my early years, I traveled to many places with my teacher, and I also saw all kinds of people."
"I also had some contact with all walks of life when I was soliciting, which is just a little bit of experience and eyes,"
"Those tricks to distinguish characters are just analogies to the methods of healers and diviners."
"As for the spy, I can't see it."
"That's obviously a mistake that the rebels ran into by mistake. What does it have to do with me? ”
"I see."
Wang Pan nodded slightly, and accepted his explanation.
"However, in the future, if you feel that you have something to think about and do..."
"Don't hide anything and catch me off guard."
"Yes."
Zhou Huaian can only continue to lower his profile.
"Thank you for taking care of yourself."
"There's a lot more to do tomorrow."
Wang Pan waved his hand with some satisfaction.
"Let's go back to the camp and rest...
Then, Zhou Huai'an got a replacement donkey to walk, and was led by his follower Xiaoqi and walked back first.
"Biter, you're doing a bad job."
Turning around, the head of Wang Pan, who stopped halfway, stopped the team officer Cheng with a cold face.
"No matter how wrong you think this monk is, he is also the person who works under the name of my Fury Wind Camp."
"How can it be the turn of outsiders to check and ignore it."
"Do you think I don't have the ability to recognize people, or do I think there aren't enough troubles in the camp?"
"It's obviously a good thing for us, but now we have to share it with others."
"At the moment, I don't want to say anything more, I just hope you can go back and think about how to bridge it."
"The bite is still not strong, but fortunately I caught up."
After arriving at the station of the Angry Wind Battalion, he said to Deng Cun, the brigade commander who met him
"I really can't see that Zhou Duyan's dog is so bad that he actually wants to kidnap our people."
"Do whatever you want to interrogate the spies as a reason. Do you think Lao Tzu doesn't understand his heart?"
"If you really want to be set up by him, even if you are suspicious or something, you can coerce and lure,"
"Then the monk won't be able to hold it steadily, and he will still be a member of my Fury Wind Camp."
"But it's a blessing in disguise, and I've picked up some benefits."
"Since the monk has this ability, he will have to be more cautious and enveloped in the future."
"Since he can see the spies of the government, it can be regarded as clearing up some involvement and suspicions."
"You must know that few of the bald donkeys in the Zen forest have these abilities."
"Even if there is something behind him, Lao Tzu is not afraid to use it."
。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
Backed by the inner city of Guangzhou, which is distributed by Yushan Mountain, the core position of the official office of the building complex, the former Guangzhou Thorn History Yamen and Guangzhou Governor's Mansion, and the Yuhua Street where the Lingnan Dongdao Jiedu Envoy Camp is located, has been filled with a forest of banners and fierce patrols.
Under the archway of the most magnificent gatehouse in the central axis of the long street, there are all kinds of flag-bearers and card officials who are busy in and out; As the place where they arrived back and forth, in the military palace of the Lingdong Jiedu envoy and the general of the sky, a figure was also sighing with his back against the large mountain and river graphics attached to the wall.
He is seven feet tall and strong like a stone, and his sallow face has been weathered and vicissitudes, which is really not very good, and even some of the tired old age after a long period of exhaustion, but between the resolute eyes and the thick and horizontal eyebrows like a pen, and between the unintentional anticipation, there is a lot of convincing and heartbroken, and even admiring and admiring;
And this half-worn plain yellow silk robe is his favorite daily wear style when he doesn't need to wear armor. Therefore, when he stood at the top of this large festival hall, he almost formed a certain kind of incompatible contrast with the gorgeous solemn and solemn atmosphere of the surrounding carved beams.
He is the leader of the largest peasant rebel army today, and he is also the No. 1 anti-thief leader in the eyes of the Tang Dynasty after Wang Xianzhi, who died in battle, and shook the world in the world; is also from a family of salt lords, who is good at riding and shooting, and is a generation of northland heroes who are good at riding and shooting; There are few poets and can be poets at the age of five, but when they become adults, they have repeatedly tried and failed to enter Beijing, and with the protracted natural disasters and man-made disasters in the township, they finally embarked on the road of killing officials and rebelling, known as "Huang Daxiao" and "Yellow King" Huang Chao,
"This Lingnan land, the five mountains are congested and the South China Sea is connected"
He was muttering to himself in an unhurried northland Caozhou accent.
"If you have a place in the South China Sea, you will always belong to the foundation."
"In this way, the sea trade will be greatly promoted and the benefits of fish and salt will be taken, and the troops will be stationed in the valley to recuperate."
"Since the Wuling Mountains are used as the screen domain, it is only necessary to reject the danger of the Tang Dynasty in the north in central Fujian and Jiangxi."
"You can hold on and settle down in the situation in the ridge for a while, and then wait for a few years later."
"Relying on the sea route, Xingbing can be slightly Fujian and Zhejiang in the north, and Annan and Guizhou in the west."
Many of the generals gathered under the tent were also dressed in different ways, some wore helmets and armor, some wore military uniforms and hats, some dressed up in official uniforms, and the regular clothes of the long gown, the rich man's brocade robe was put on the body, and there were many styles that were mixed and matched together, and they stood together in such a loose and idle manner.
But under the influence of his invisible aura and might, as many of his subordinates and generals, whether they are born Qingqi handsome or majestic in appearance, or heroic and vigorous, or eagle-eyed wolf, or old, steady and heavy; As long as you stand with him, you can't help but become the best foil or a background like flowers and green leaves in a sense.
"King Huang...
In the end, it was a newly promoted general who broke the long-lasting silence.
"How many times have you said it, don't call it the Yellow King."
Huang Chao, who had not spoken, suddenly turned around and interrupted him.
"A certain family raised an army not for the respect of princes, but for countless desperate Li Shu to ask for their lives at the right time."
"It is to be called a certain (cupetian) general or (a million rebels)."
"Yes, General"
The young general said with some embarrassment.
"Anyway."
Huang Chao continued to inquire.
"Under the list inside and outside the three gates, there are still few scholars and students to vote?"
"At present, there are only more than ten chats,"
The young general responded cautiously.
"And there is only one who has passed the township lift, and he is still a half-old school teacher."
"It's really a bit unbearable, let alone assigned to various ministries"
This result, which was obviously still expected, made the lord of the rebel army sigh heavily; It feels even more worrying to him than when he was surrounded and intercepted by the official army in Da Yuling, and he was defeated after repeated defeats and his subordinates were defeated, left or surrendered to the enemy.
Because, among the rebels, there is no shortage of warriors who dare to fight their lives, and there is no shortage of heroes who sacrifice their lives for righteousness, let alone young veterans who stand out in the battle array; However, only in terms of affairs and civil affairs, there is a shortage of all kinds of timely talents who write documents, manage money and food, and organize general affairs, so that there are a lot of assistants and subordinate officials in his general's mansion, but few of them are worthy of their existence;
Even now his secretary in charge is actually his nephew Lin Yan, who has just read Meng, and he has temporarily taken up the position; And other main books, dictionaries, counselors, and military personnel are also coerced and pulled from all walks of life, and the power to make up the number to deal with the temporary goods.
"Then step up the rectification of military discipline."
He suddenly turned to him.
"Don't you think I don't know anything ... Something to do privately"
Speaking of this, he squeezed out of his mouth almost word by word.
"I've asked people to be kind to people who don't have official status."
As a result, these killers are to bring knives to the door and neck, or tie up the whole family,。。 Do you treat these scholars so well?"
"Do you want to ruin the reputation of the rebels to any other extent?"
Speaking of this, Huang Chao suddenly remembered something and asked in a tight voice
"Regarding the Chao Guan's department, what is the follow-up disposal of the wanton search and killing in Zhen Yifang."
"During this period, more than 100 people were killed and hundreds were injured, and they have been comforted and compensated."
Another general, who was a little older in the city, took the opportunity to say.
"The soldiers of the department have also received punishments and punishments."
"The only thing left is the leader Chao Lang to dispose of the people, and it is still waiting for the military government to decide."
Then, the generals below had already spoken one after another.
"A military order is a military order, there are no rules, how can it be a circle"
"Since the military government has ordered the knife to be sealed, he has started another indiscriminate killing."
"It has to be redone, otherwise the hearts of the people in the city who are so easy to press will float again."
"They all killed Hu'er, but he killed all the Han families in the small half of the square."
"There are also many crimes of torture and coercion on the spot. The people in the neighborhood helped the rebels kill Hu. ”
Of course, there are different pieces and people who intercede for them.
"Listen to what I said."
"Chao Lang will be with his brother, but the old man from the county is wronged."
"I often fight with the tent and fight hundreds of battles, can you be a little forgive?"
"A glimmer of opportunity for him to redeem his merits."
"Then abolish his title, and the department will be handed over to the main formation, and he will be filled into the dare team to redeem himself for nothing."
"Won't this be too heavy, the township party and the brothers who came out of the wrongs, but if one dies, there will be one less."
"That yellow. . . King.. No, no. What about the great general's cause. ”
"Isn't it possible to negotiate and discount?"
"Okay, my plan is decided, so I don't need to say more."
"Tell the whole army, take it as a warning."
Then, Huang Chao secretly sighed slightly, and then he laid down the city of Guangzhou, and inside the rebel army that was pinched into a group, all kinds of large and small mountains and township party factions began to emerge again, and they couldn't wait for the existence and influence of their respective realities; This great cause of changing the world to make up for the average of the world has only gone far.
Therefore, what really made him make up his mind to rectify the army was actually another trend of events and development that he perceived.
The people of all departments have been in the prosperous and rich city of Guangzhou for a long time, and it is time to levy and move; Otherwise, it is easy to start to be happy and gradually become unbearable to attack and conquer, just like the signs of the repetition of the old things before Wang Xianzhi's defeat in the attack on Ezhou; On the other hand, it also gives the remnants of the officers and troops scattered in the five prefectures of Lingnan Province and various prefectures and counties more respite, and even the external threats and potential possibilities of a comeback.
